Using fewer plastic bags, throwing rubbish in the right place and saving water...These are some common ways to protect the environment. But scientists around the world are trying some new and cool ways. Catch the air In Iceland you can find a kind of factory. It catches Carbon dioxide(二氧化碳,CO2) from the air. Then, it turns CO2 into stones deep under the ground. It catches up to 4,000 tons of CO2 every year. This is the same as the gas from about 790 cars in a year. Potty time for cows Cows usually pee and poop(大小便) everywhere. Their waste pollutes soil and water. It is better if cows can pee and poop in one place. This will be easier for people to do with their waste. Scientists are teaching some cows to do so. When the cows pee and poop in the right place, they get a snack. When they don’t do so, people squirt(喷) them with water. Meat-free menu Meat is tasty, but farm animals make a lot of CO2. Some Schools in Germany have meat-free menus for students. These Menus have a lot of vegetables and a little fish. |

【推荐2】On most plastic packaging (包装), there’s a small triangle (三角) with a letter or a number written inside. These little symbols are not easy to be noticed, but are really important. They tell you what kind of plastic it is and whether it can be recycled or not.
Can it be recycled? | Types of Plastic |
This is the plastic that you often see on supermarket shelves! It’s used to make plastic water bottles and biscuit boxes. | |
HDPE is a stronger type of plastic. It is what milk bottles are made of. | |
LDPE is a very soft plastic which is not easily broken. It is what shopping bags are made of. | |
This plastic is often seen in our daily life. You’ll probably have seen it as those cheap white cups you get hot drinks in, or as takeaway food packaging. |

【推荐3】We all know that the environment is important to us all. We should always protect it from pollution. There is a discussion on the Interent about the best ways to protect the environment.
David (A farmer) | I think the best way to protect the environment is to plant more trees. Trees can make the air clean and make our city look nicer. |
Frank (A bank clerk) | Driving is one cause of pollution. If you want to use your car, ask you a question, “Do I really need my car?” Walk or use your bike if the trip is a short one. So in my opinion, walking or riding a bike is a good way to protect the environment. |
Sally (A housewife) | I uausally use natural things and try to recycle things as much as possible. When I go shopping, I use a basket instead of plastic bags. |
Helen (A doctor) | I think water is the most valuable thing. If we don’t save water, it could run out. So I often shorten my shower time and turn off the running water after washing my hands. And I ask my daughter Lisa and my son John to do so. |
We can do far more than these things in our daily life. Please protect the environment from small things. If you have any other good suggestions, please call us.
